PELEA — a 2D indie animated film that’s been a brainchild of mine since 2020 but last year I finally took the leap and began developing the project. Now, @peleaanimation is a team of artists from all around the world bringing a powerful story to life. [email protected]

I deeply miss the world before AI existed. I’m so exhausted from side eyeing videos, recoiling at tacky fonts, sepia tinted art, the messy blobs and blips of unmatched colors. It’s slowly sucking all the creative life out of the world while it physically destroys it.

Teaser releasing this fall 👀
“Pelea” uses animation to speak out against the imperialism that has devastated South America. Our countries have so much wealth that is being pillaged by foreign powers. We are animating a story of resistance (NO AI). Support our production on Kofi: ko-fi.com/peleaanimation

Daya & Lorena are prodigy scientists. They are developing a technology that speeds up the lifecycles of oil & metal eating fungi. The modified fungi serve as a pollution clean up tool to repair the devastation from drilling and mining in the rainforest where Lorena is from.

Los conquistadors están mirando a Colombia desde el infierno, felices! Ojalá que una empresa de combustibles fósiles hace fracking directamente debajo de las casas de todos que votaron por “El Tigre”, como ese episodio de fracking en Bojack Horseman.

The Conquistadors are looking up from hell at Colombia, so proud the self hatred they instilled. I hope everyone who voted for that demon has a fossil fuel company frack directly under their houses like the fracking episode of Bojack Horseman. #colombia #election

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Jeff Bezos did not say human water consumption limits AI's potential. The publication that originally reported this headline has since corrected its article, noting that the quote was wrongly attributed to Bezos. theprint.in/feature/jeff-b… bbc.com/news/articles/…
